    • Kim-1/Tim-1 and Immune Cells: Shifting Sands 

      Ichimura, Takaharu; Brooks, Craig; Bonventre, Joseph Vincent (Nature Publishing Group, 2012)
      Kim-1/Tim-1 is an apoptotic-cell phagocytosis and scavenger receptor that is most highly upregulated in proximal tubular epithelium in acute and chronic kidney injury. While Kim-1/Tim-1 has been proposed to be a costimulatory ...
    • Meclizine Preconditioning Protects the Kidney Against Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury 

      Kishi, Seiji; Campanholle, Gabriela; Gohil, Vishal M.; Perocchi, Fabiana; Brooks, Craig R.; Morizane, Ryuji; Sabbisetti, Venkata; Ichimura, Takaharu; Mootha, Vamsi K.; Bonventre, Joseph V. (Elsevier, 2015)
      Global or local ischemia contributes to the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI). Currently there are no specific therapies to prevent AKI. Potentiation of glycolytic metabolism and attenuation of mitochondrial ...
    • Modelling kidney disease with CRISPR-mutant kidney organoids derived from human pluripotent epiblast spheroids 

      Freedman, Benjamin S.; Brooks, Craig R.; Lam, Albert Q.; Fu, Hongxia; Morizane, Ryuji; Agrawal, Vishesh; Saad, Abdelaziz F.; Li, Michelle K.; Hughes, Michael R.; Werff, Ryan Vander; Peters, Derek T.; Lu, Junjie; Baccei, Anna; Siedlecki, Andrew M.; Valerius, M. Todd; Musunuru, Kiran; McNagny, Kelly M.; Steinman, Theodore I.; Zhou, Jing; Lerou, Paul H.; Bonventre, Joseph V. (Nature Pub. Group, 2015)
      Human-pluripotent-stem-cell-derived kidney cells (hPSC-KCs) have important potential for disease modelling and regeneration. Whether the hPSC-KCs can reconstitute tissue-specific phenotypes is currently unknown. Here we ...
